Lachie Henderson
The mobile backman missed the big win over Port Adelaide on Saturday night after being 'managed'. He is likely to return for this weekend's important clash with Gold Coast at Simonds Stadium.

Darcy Lang
The young half-forward was omitted from the AFL team but didn't line up in the VFL. He will be pushing hard for a recall on the training track this week.

Jordan Murdoch
The dashing midfielder lined up in the VFL Cats' clash with North Ballarat at Eureka Stadium on Friday night after being omitted from the AFL team. He pushed his case by racking up 17 disposals and kicking a goal.

Jed Bews
The ever-reliable defender was the VFL Cats' best player in their round one loss to the Northern Blues. He backed that up with 13 disposals and four tackles in Friday night's impressive win over North Ballarat.

George Horlin-Smith
Another week, another solid performance from Horlin-Smith in the VFL. He tallied 20 disposals and kicked a goal in the win over the Roosters.
